Email response to me from David Blumberg:
(permission has been given to post on the Clarinet Bulletin Board)
"...here's the info on Michele's recordings. All of the Masters used I
got directly from her (I'm in Phila, she's in LA) - many were on tape.
The John Williams work was used with his Permission directly. I even have
his autograph on a photocopy of the Concerto that he signed in person after a Phila. Orchestra Concert.
There wasn't any "microphone in the audience" at all for any of them.
Unfortunately they weren't done in a Studio as her Studio recordings are
with Summit, but these are the live in concert recordings which we are
making available.
That master recording was from the early 90's and was quite damaged. It's
the ONLY RECORDING OF THE JOHN WILLIAMS CONCERTO. So without that recording, you wouldn't be hearing it at all. Believe me, if you heard the quality of the master recording, you would understand just how much better it sounds after I cleaned it up.
Man, I only **wish** I had a better master to work with, but alas, it
wasn't to be. The hiss on the original was unplayable..."
Any further questions about this specific recording can be directed off-line to David Blumberg on the klarinet mailing list.
